Demonstrate an @ identier

// Demonstrate an @ identier. 
  
using System;  
   
public class IdTest {   
  static void Main() {   
    int @if; // use if as an identifier 
 
    for(@if = 0; @if < 10; @if++) 
      Console.WriteLine("@if is " + @if); 
  }   
}

The @ prefix turns off the processing of escape characters.

 
using System;
using System.Text;
class StringApp {
    static void Main(string[] args) {
        string finalString = @"\n\tString file: "C:\MyApp\Strings"";
        Console.WriteLine(finalString);
    }
}

White space is preserved with verbatim strings.

 
using System;
using System.Text;
class StringApp {
    static void Main(string[] args) {
        string myLongString = @"This is a very
            very 
            very 
            long string";
        Console.WriteLine(myLongString);
    }
}
